???? Meet Brianna Peace from our Tampa, FL location! Bri manages the front desk as well as assisting our Accounting department with billing. "My favorite part of working here at CPR is that we make a real difference every day in the environment." she says, "It's satisfying to physically see the process of recycling plastic that would have ended up in a landfill and now will be turned back into usable goods.” Bri is currently pursuing her bachelor’s in finance at the University of South Florida. She balances her studies with baking, gardening, cuddling her cats, and bingeing astronomy documentaries. “Bri came to CPR in May 2024 to fill the role of our long time Office Manager, Donna Baum who retired after 23 years of service. Although Donna leaving left some pretty big shoes to fill, Bri jumped in feet first and took the initiative to make the role hers. Brianna brings a breath of fresh air, new perspective, professionalism, and is always eager to help and assist where needed with a bright, cheery smile. Finding someone to take over 23 years of experience was no easy task, but Bri made the transition a truly smooth one! We’re grateful she chose us!” – Dave Hovey, CFO & Bernadette Billups, HR & Accounting Manager. ????

#RecyclingisReal folks, and the dedicated individuals at Commercial Plastics Recycling, Inc. are pleased to show you how it happens, where it happens and why it's a vital link in the circularity chain. It was an honor getting to know their team in Tampa, FL and take the latest video in the Recycling is Real series from concept to production. I'm proud to say that the team at PLASTICS (Plastics Industry Association) has officially led this successful campaign for one year. Since our launch in 2023, each Recycling is Real video has taught us even more about the hard working men and women throughout America who make recycling happen, every single day. See for yourself, Recycling is Real! #sustainability #circularity #recyclingisreal #peopleofplastics
